Today I am celebrating my 8th rez day. Where did the time go! And what a year! I’ve had quite a few firsts in my Secondlife. Yes still after all these years I’m still having “firsts”. My store, its grown to reside on its own sim, a goal and a dream of mine. Also my home was moved to a private sim giving a nice escape and a playground. Regardless of what first I’m discovering I am surrounded by my sweet friends, who usually get suckered into a photo or two with me.

Thank you for the huge amounts of support this year. Without them, and you, this world won’t be as exciting!

A brand new skin was announced today at Glam Affair. This one is called Rose, ain’t she beautiful? In all the years I’ve been a fan of GA (even under its older brand name!), I’ve wanted to have my photo hung on their walls. It might be a little vain but it makes me happy to say … my photo is hung! One more item checked off my Dream Big list.

I was asked to be on the cover and interviewed for a Second Life publication, Fusion Magazine. Read my interview.

Libby Farleigh, owner of this ever popular magazine, reached out to me a few weeks ago to ask if I pose to be on the cover.The cover photo was taken by the ever talented Xantheanne and interviewed the famous Rylan Carling. It was a real honor to work with this bunch.

Seven years for me doing this blogging thing. My past blogging year has slowed some, as expected, since my store has taken much of my time. Don’t get me wrong, I still blog as that is my first love in SecondLife. This past year, for me, has been focused more on covering the different events I’ve loved over the years and discovering a few new ones. As always I’ve been working on advancing my photography skills. This year was a huge change for me. My photos are becoming crisper and brighter. I’m a little afraid to scroll back to my first post seven years ago. I barely understood the simple inworld camera and that was before windlight settings!

My advice for the other bloggers out there, never delete old photos. It would have been a scream to see them again. I know what they looked like but to show you now seven years later… so embarrassing (but fun)!
